Senior IT Business Analyst, Finance Platform

About the role

As a Senior IT Business Analyst embedded in Bolt's Finance Engineering / Automations team, you will be the key link between financial stakeholders, regulatory requirements, and engineering teams. Your primary responsibility is to translate complex financial legislation, compliance obligations, and business needs into clear, structured, and traceable system requirements.

You will work closely with Accounting, Tax, Controlling, Reporting, and Procurement teams, as well as engineering and product teams, ensuring that automations built at Bolt are compliant, reliable, and well-documented. Your work will directly impact Bolt's financial compliance and sustainability by helping automate critical processes and reduce significant compliance risks across global markets.

Main tasks and responsibilities

• Gather, analyse, and document functional and non-functional requirements from financial stakeholders using BABOK-aligned techniques: interviews, workshops, surveys, observation, and document analysis.
• Analyse regulatory and legislative documents (e.g. e-invoicing directives, fiscalization laws, VAT regulations) to extract actionable system requirements.
• Translate business and regulatory needs into clear user stories, use cases, acceptance criteria, and as-is/to-be process flows for engineering teams.
• Maintain structured, versioned documentation and requirements traceability in Confluence and Jira.
• Act as the primary point of contact between Finance, Product, Engineering, and QA — managing expectations, scope, priorities, sign-offs, and risks throughout the delivery lifecycle.
• Support agile delivery: clarify requirements mid-sprint, support UAT, verify delivered features, and help triage defects.

• You have solid hands-on experience as a Business Analyst, System Analyst, or similar role in technology or engineering projects.
• You have practical knowledge of BABOK or related business analysis practices, including elicitation, requirements analysis, traceability, and stakeholder management.
• You have domain knowledge in Finance, with an understanding of financial processes, accounting, compliance, or similar finance-related areas.
• You have experience working with regulatory or legislative documents as a primary source of system or business requirements.
• You have proven ability to write high-quality functional specifications, user stories, and acceptance criteria for engineering teams.
• You are confident working with diverse stakeholders: you understand their needs, challenge assumptions, guide them toward effective solutions, and act like an owner by managing priorities, alignment, and documentation.

• Accelerate your professional growth with unique career opportunities.
• Enjoy a rewarding salary and stock options, knowing that as Bolt succeeds, so do you.
• Take care of your physical and mental health with our wellness perks.
• Celebrate 5 years at Bolt with a 1-month paid sabbatical to recharge.
• Connect with colleagues at annual company events and smaller team gatherings.
• Balance flexibility and in-person collaboration with our hybrid model, including at least 12 monthly in-office days.
